From Old English to Modern American English in One Monologue

From Old English to Modern American English in One Monologue

In this video, I present a monologue which gradually transitions from pre-literary Old English (c.450 AD) to an urban northeastern dialect of modern American English. I present it first without any subtitles or notes so that viewers can gauge when they first start to pick out words and sentences, and then with subtitles and footnotes.
